Hi all, just want to say thanks to those for putting on social racing on wednesday nights at pelican point (swan river). Having not compeated in slalom racing for years, its a great reminder about how fun racing can be. No stress, a beer or two (after racing of course) and a great crowd makes a good arvos windsurfing. So any one in my shoes, or anyone wanting to give it a go, its a good icebreaker.
High five goes out to Steve and Chris for the stacks of the day!
Cheers

iT'S A GPS probably the cheapest minimum standard gps recommended if you wanna a variety downloadable data. The GT-31 is more expensive about $100 but more accurate.

I've got a spare newy GT-11 with a cheap aquapack, I'm selling mine for $200 with the aquapak, but look around you might get a better deal, and I can't give a warranty.

Just pick a team now, Pinna;s sound pretty keen for ya, and Mineral the captain has invited you!! Let me know if ya need any help.

Miner's get onto it!!!!

Just sent you a PM, Paul, and dont concern too much about the board standard, plenty of time to work up to that if you join up
